So who here is purchasing a 3DS?

And if you are, what titles are you planning on getting or looking forward to?
I'm stuck on whether to get Street fighter IV on the release date with my 3ds, or just continue my pokemon black and wait for mario kart 3ds to be released.

[quote=khanga]I might wait till the price goes down a bit or until Zelda comes out on it, most keen on playing through it on better graphics than my old N64[/quote]
Shouldn't the release date price be considerably cheaper until a year passes?
I mean, the stores should all be stocking up and trying to get the most preorders/launch sales.

I pre-ordered a 3ds and street fighter a week ago. I wasn't planning on pre-ordering it at first, but the guy at the store talked me into it.

Nope...I've had it with handhelds. Too many of them and their expensive. I do admit the 3DS is pretty good though.

I work at Best Buy. All I have to do is talk to a Nintendo Rep, and I'll get 40% discount. (We talk alot, he said he'd hook me up)

@MrLolHobo:

There was SSFIV, Ridge racer, Resident evil and an AR game.
These little kids was practically queuing for the good games, leaving me to play the AR game.
It was fun though

Did you get a chance to play the 3ds at Best Buy?[/quote]
I live in Australia, and we don't have a Best Buy.
Although, I have tried the 3DS when it was available for trial in a shopping centre.

I don't care so much for the price drop because I haven't upgraded my DS in so long.
I still have the first gen DS. So, I think it's okay to buy the 3DS at full price.
However, it is best for me to wait until the titles come out.

[quote=0n3zcythe]This. When Super Smash Bros 3D comes out. Or a Metroid. Some of my friends are getting it to replay Ocarina. I've played through it once, and it was enough for me. Another is getting it for Starfox. I was terrible at SF and he pwned my ass at SFDS to point where it wasn't fun any more. I already have my Pokemon so there needs to be a Metroid or Smash for it to get me to buy it.[/quote]

Will there even be a SSB 3DS?

[quote=MrLolHobo]Yes! Getting it on launch day with SSFIV, Pokemon White and The World Ends With You.

(The launch titles don't really excite me.)[/quote]

I agree, only SSFIV appeals most out of the rest.
I'm most keen on mario kart though

Waiting till later when it gets better hardware or games. I'm not forking over $250 just for crappy battery life and no games
